  • Bitter melon juice may prevent the development of pancreatic cancer by cutting off the fuel supply to cancerous cells, according to new data.

    The research, performed in mouse models and on human cells in a lab, show that bitter melon juice restricts the ability of pancreatic cancer cells to metabolise glucose, therefore cutting off the cells' energy supply and eventually killing the cancer.
